I was inspired by the colors and patterns so here is what I created.

I created a gift card holder using my Silhouette software. These cute little bears come from PK-1372 Teddy Bear Love. This set was released this month and it is so cute!! I paper-pieced these adorable bears. I kept my layout pretty clean as I really wanted the colors to pop.

This set is part of Peachy Keen Stamps Hot Deals. It will be on sale for a special price until the end of the month. Don't you want to add it to your collection? :)

Make sure to check out the Challenge Forum over at Peachy Keen Stamps so you can see all the wonderful inspiration the design team has created. Then get your Peachy Keen Stamps and join in the challenge!!

Over the next week I, along the the Scrappy Moms design team, will be showcasing these stamps so be sure to come back. Also, check out our guest designer for this month, Roberta at Adventures of a Bedtime Scrapper. She is sure to have something fabulous to share!

Our February Release Blog Hop is officially underway and we are thrilled to bring you the latest designs that are now available in our shop!

If you’re a subscriber to our Stamp of the Month club, then you’ve already received a little background about how this release came about, but for those who might not yet be subscribers, here’s a little more about this release in Kathy’s own words…

There is a reason behind this mixed theme. My only grand-daughters are moving to Florida with their parents. My daughter and son-in-law gave me this news just as I was pulling ideas together for February. It took over my mind and soon it all kind of CLICKED!

A labor of love and from the heart, the designs this month will be perfect for so many of your creative projects that we can’t begin to name them all.

You should have arrived here fromJessica's Blog. If not, you’ll want to make sure you hop back toPeachy Keen Stamps’ Blogto start from the beginning! Missed a stop? Don’t worry, the PKS has the full hop order!

For my project today, I decided to make a gift box shaped like a house. I started with a cut file from My Scrap Chick and modified it a bit with my Silhouette. I used several different sets from February's release.

Our biggest excitement is that this year – a reformatted and better-than-ever Stamp Kit of the Month Club! Check out all the details below andsign up here.
